Chapter 250 I don't want to say that Chelsea will win the championship early, but this is the truth [Ask the big guys to subscribe!] 】

"It's coming! Eden Hazard's goal after the break! Ibrahimovic didn't shoot straight on goal... Repeat! Li Ang—!!! This ball is here!

The thirteenth minute of the first half! Leon helps Chelsea open the scoring! Iconic burst in the box! A veritable hard-fought corkscrew! ”

In the studio of Sina Sports, with the birth of Li Ang's goal to break the deadlock of the game, the enthusiasm of Zhan Jun and Coach Zhang was also completely ignited!

"Still can't keep up, Tulalang didn't actually make any defensive mistakes, but in terms of speed, he was completely thrown off by Leon!

Ay! Leon is so smart, when he meets Fernandinho, he fights against him, and he compares speed against Tulalang! ”

"So Mourinho now dares to let Leon have enough power to plug in, Leon has been learning quickly with Lampard this season, and when it comes to the ability of midfielders to score goals, Lampard is a leader."

"Hehe~ Anyway, Leon has always had no shortage of excellent teachers on the road to growth, you see this, Xavi Alonso, Pirlo, and now Lampard, anyway, Leon can learn something from them......"

The two chatted in the studio, and fans in China began to look forward to Li Ang's final goal this season.

For the Chelsea fans at Stamford Bridge, they are even more looking forward to waiting for better news from Manchester City after a successful win over Arsenal in this round.

Liverpool, who are currently third in the Premier League, also have one more game in hand, as many as 10 points behind Chelsea.

In the eyes of Chelsea fans, there is not much difference between Liverpool and Arsenal, and neither poses much of a threat to Chelsea's title winning success this season.

So the main thing now is to see when Manchester City, who have one less game and eight points behind Chelsea, will drop the chain.

Almost four years after a Premier League title, Chelsea fans are still desperate to announce a resurgence with a Premier League trophy.

Not only them, but every coach and player at Chelsea is also excited at the moment.

It's still early to reach the final victory of the season.

But in the final sprint, removing a tough roadblock is one step closer to the championship trophy.

Don't say much, even if Manchester City draws one more game!

As long as Manchester City and Chelsea have 10 points, then Chelsea only needs to grit their teeth and win 4 more games to win the championship in advance after winning Arsenal in this round!

It's a real target to be able to, and how can Chelsea fans not get excited at the moment?

As for Arsenal, who have only conceded a goal now, they have been ignored by the vast majority of Chelsea fans.

The frenetic atmosphere at Stamford Bridge has further affected Chelsea's players.

However, Li Ang, who had just finished listening to the celebration with a flamboyant face, turned his head and hugged his teammates, but once again took the initiative to ring the alarm bell for them.

"Keep your heads up, brothers, we've just scored the first goal of the game, Arsenal are more than capable of getting it back in the next game, we have to keep pressing them while the momentum is still there!"

Leon's remarks cleared the heads of many Chelsea players on the pitch a bit.

And then Mourinho's tactical gestures made the whole Chelsea team quickly unified their tactical thinking.

Arsene Wenger didn't mess up at the moment, he had planned to try to lure the enemy deeper and then play a dozen quick counter-attacks on the flanks.

After all, the thigh on the front line was absent due to injury today, and Giroud's presence made Arsenal very suitable for playing long passes and counterattacks, so he came up with a formation of five midfielders.

But at least at the moment, Leon's goal brought Arsene Wenger to his senses. Simply piling up the number of midfielders will not improve the quality of the central defence.

Even if Podolski and Chamberlain are more active in defense, they are not full-time defensive midfielders after all, and they are still good at playing attacking.

Or what Arsenal is good at, after all, is to suppress the opponent in attack to get more attacking rounds.

Forcing the counter-attack is not Arsenal's specialty.

This is dictated by the tactical tone of the entire team.

After all, the tactical drills you do and the cooperation between the players are all based on the tactical tone of a fluid attack.

Suddenly changing the style of play, and asking for results, is basically unrealistic.

So the professor who figured it out quickly realized that he was looking ahead in the pre-game tactical arrangement.

They were going to fight in this game, so they didn't need to think so much about it at all, after all, if they had their backs to fight, they would at least have to compete with their opponents in the field they were most familiar with.

Sometimes I think too much about it, but I put handcuffs and anklets on myself to add restraint.

So after the resumption of the game, Chelsea's players on the pitch and Mourinho off the pitch quickly noticed a change in tactics from the entire Arsenal squad.

It is unlikely that the tactical thinking has been completely reversed in an instant, and the momentum of the entire team has changed drastically.

After all, the professor is not Uncle Yu and later Qi Xuanzong, he doesn't play metaphysics.

But there is no doubt that after Arsene Wenger learned his lesson and made up his mind to storm Chelsea, the overall morale of his players really rose!

Mourinho's tactical change was to move from taking the initiative to attacking to disrupting Arsenal's counter-attacking tempo.

Leon had intended to direct his team-mates to press Arsenal in a short period of time.

But seeing the momentum of Arsenal's midfield pressure after the restart, he didn't hold it up.

After a little thought, Leon directly gave up the idea of interrupting Arsenal's attacking rhythm with high pressing.

Chelsea still shrunk their formation, with Eden Hazard and Kevin De Bruyne returning to near the halfway line under the command of Leon. Frank Lampard recovered to the top of his half's half.

Leon himself went straight back to the midfield position, with Nemanja Matic on the left and him on the right.

The whole Chelsea team changed smoothly and changed to the classic formation of 4231.

Eden Hazard, Frank Lampard and Kevin De Bruyne formed Chelsea's first interception line.

Behind them, Nemanja Matic and Leon were firmly locked in the ribs of their own half.

For Arsenal, who already likes to use the opponent's rib space to make a fuss and play with passing and cutting, it can no longer be simply described as uncomfortable.

You must know that Leon is now less and less likely to appear in the midfield position for pure defense.

Normally, if he doesn't play at the back, then Nemanja Matic is now the number one defensive midfielder in the Premier League.

And if he takes the initiative to play in the midfield, he is the first, and Nemanja Matic is postponed to second.

So now Arsenal's attack can be seen as forcing the top two defensive midfielders in the Premier League to work together.

Looking at this scene in the live footage, Gunners fans don't know whether they should feel bad or proud.

It is worth the current Li Ang to take the initiative to put down his body to defend the Premier League team, which is counted as one, which is becoming more and more rare.

But Chelsea, who forced out their strongest defensive form, looked like Arsenal didn't want to have any better attacking chances in the first half.

In the first half of the league, Arsenal, who were all the main players in the fight against Chelsea, could not take the Chelsea who were defending to the slightest.

Now Arsenal have also conceded a main centre-forward.

If Giroud could successfully pry open the door to Chelsea's defence, then Giroud would not be playing for Arsenal right now, and the team that would be more suitable for him would be Bayern Munich or Real Madrid.

Leon and Nemanja Matic have brought back the wall of sighs in front of the Chelsea penalty area.

That is, Frank Lampard is not at his peak, otherwise Chelsea will not only have defense at this time.

Even if Frank Lampard returns to the level of four years ago, Chelsea can directly open Arsenal on the counter-attack!

Or in the central midfield position, Chelsea still have an eighty-tenth-season Essien in full form, and Leon can now break down Arsenal's central defence by replacing Frank Lampard's position and role.

It's a pity that such a midfield combination may be too perverted for God to watch.

So it staggered the peaks of Leon, Nemanja Matic and Frank Lampard and Essien.

Just like when he was in Real Madrid and Milan, Li Ang partnered with Brother Long and Master Pi, who had passed their prime.

Mourinho was sitting in the coach's box at the moment, watching the fierce competition between the two teams on the field, his eyes were focused, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Compared with his calmness, Old Man Wenger stood on the sidelines with his hands crossed, looking a little anxious in his heart.

In the 23rd minute of the first half, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain received a through ball after Cazorla's dribbling breakthrough and successfully went down to deliver Arsenal's first threatening cross of the first half.

Giroud gritted his teeth and resisted Terry's confrontation and barely shook his head against the football.

Unfortunately, with Cech's focused save, Giroud's goal was still lifted off the line with one palm.

The Arsenal fans at the scene all hugged their heads and sighed in annoyance, Wenger also closed his eyes and frowned, clenched his hands into fists and clenched hard, and then shook his head and slowly let go.

Five minutes later, Podolski received Giroud's header on the line of the penalty area, and after a slight adjustment, he shot directly from distance, and came with a heavy bombardment!

Unfortunately, the ball was slightly incurred and deflected off the near post. Podolsky roared unwillingly, and the Gunners fans sighed again.

After those two failed attempts, Arsenal fell back into a repetitive rhythm of crosses and backs.

The occasional pass that could be sent wide could only be converted into clearances for John Terry and Gary Cahill, as it was too difficult to penetrate the Chelsea penalty area from the front.

In just ten minutes after the retreat, Li Ang has already gained 3 successful steals and 2 successful aerial duels.

Matic on his flanks was similarly efficient defensively.

Now Arsenal only have one in-form Cazorla, who can be called a master of dribbling.

Like Chamberlain and Podolsky, if there is no room to rush, the threat can only be greatly reduced.

Crucially, they are far less dangerous on the flanks than Walcott, but the frequent injuries to the Tigers have made it difficult for him to play a full season.

Speaking of which, since entering 2010, Wenger and Arsenal's luck has been surprisingly bad every year.

Cesc Fabregas and Robin van Persie both fell out with the team after their respective peak performances, leaving the team to pursue their championship dreams.

Wenger patched up, although he could still take Arsenal to the top four of the Premier League and qualify for the Champions League, but the Champions League knockout draw in recent years was extremely unfavorable to Arsenal.

You talk about fighting the league, but every year Arsenal's injuries are the worst among the Premier League's giants.

So sometimes you can't really say that Arsene Wenger and Arsenal are at this level.

With a large number of talented young players who are full of injuries.

It is not easy for Mr. Wenger to stay on the edge until now.

Leon was deeply sympathetic to this, but when it was time to make a heavy hand, he would not be merciful at all.

Arsenal's constant trial and error on the flanks is not only looking for the possibility of threatening the attack, but also constantly giving Chelsea opportunities to find out their attacking cards.

It was Chelsea's wings who had given the opportunity before, and most of them were leaked from Bertrand's side, allowing Oxlade-Chamberlain to successfully deliver crosses.

But Leon knows that Bertrand usually prefers to play in attack, but once he gets serious, his single-defense ability is also at the top of the entire Premier League's left-back group.

And who can make him nervous and serious all of a sudden?

That is, of course, Mourinho, the hard-blooded Chelsea patriarch who is standing on the sidelines and has begun to stare at him!

Leon waited to see a good show, and Bertrand didn't dare to wave anymore after being named and yelled at twice by Mourinho.

In the 34th minute of the first half, Cazorla also wanted to replicate Chamberlain's previous tacit pass and run and forcibly hit Bertrand's side.

As a result, this time Chamberlain only started to start, and Bertrand got stuck in position in advance and turned and ran wildly, putting a shovel before the football passed him, and shoveled the ball to Terry, who came to pick him up!

Leon and Nemanja immediately pulled out of their positions and turned to raise their hands.

John Terry passed the ball to Nemanja Matic, who was closer to him, and Leon immediately began to move forward.

Matic did not force his way to Leon this time, because he saw that the moment Leon stepped forward, Arsenal's trailing Tulalang and Arteta, who was standing in the middle line, immediately moved closer to Leon.

So this time he played a long ball straight to Frank Lampard, who was just around the halfway line.

After the magic lamp led the ball and turned around, he didn't take it much, and saw that Hazard was already in place to start at speed, so he stuffed the ball directly.

Eden Hazard, who was galloping down the left flank, was quite confident against Sagna once again.

As the Premier League leader so far this season, Hazard also has corresponding tactical privileges in the Chelsea team.

When he wasn't too sticky, his breakthrough attempts were allowed by the whole Chelsea team and Jose Mourinho.

After all, no matter how rigorous the tactical design is, it also needs the flash of genius to add uncertainty to the threat.

And this time Hazard didn't disappoint his team-mates.

From slowing down the ball from the outside to accelerating to cutting inside after smashing the ball, it took less than two seconds for Hazard to pass Sagna again!

However, in the rib area about 5 meters away from the Arsenal penalty area, Hazard once again opted for a decisive cross.

The ball skimmed past Frank Lampard, who followed up in the middle, and also skipped Tulalang, who returned to defend.

Leon was in the best position to receive the ball.

However, at the moment, there is still an adduction position in front of him, and Gibbs is eyeing him, so the rest of the Arsenal defenders are still more assured.

At least Leon won't have the chance to shoot straight on goal, and Gibbs has every chance of taking a tactical foul.

But at the moment of seeing Li Ang's next move, countless gunman fans in front of the TV couldn't help but exclaim!

Leon met Hazard's quick pass, did not stop the ball, let alone adjust.

He quickly swung his right calf, tightened the arch of his foot, and pushed the ball into the Arsenal penalty area!

Koscielny was still directing the positions of his teammates in the back line at this time, and Gibbs, who was staring at Leon, and he didn't expect that Leon would dare to send a straight stopper so boldly!

Another is that the strength of Leon's close-to-the-ground pass is too great.

While quickly penetrating the Arsenal backline to intercept, it also made it difficult for Ibrahimovic in the box to reach the pass.

Of course, Li Ang dared to pass it on like this, and there were also his reasons.

In order not to slow down the momentum of the counterattack, sometimes the necessary risky attempts can be made.

And Leon has done this kind of passing and running with Ibrahimovic or Lukaku more than once in his usual training.

There is a good chance that Lukaku will miss a powerful straight stop like Leon, after all, there will always be some problems with his position in the middle.

Ibrahimovic was also unable to complete the offload adjustment most of the time, as his explosive speed has dropped a lot compared to when he was younger.

However, Ibrahimovic has a good sense of position, and he is tall and long-legged, unable to unload the ball, but he can always complete unexpected forced shots.

At this moment, Ibrahimovic took the tall Mertesacker from the left side of the penalty area to complete the diagonal insertion to the middle of the penalty area at the moment when Leon sent a powerful through-ball.

Seeing that he was about to lose track of the speed at which the ball was rolling, Ibrahimovic did not seem flustered at all.

He suddenly threw himself out as he ran, and then he stretched out his right leg as far as he could. Try to poke the ball on your toes!

Mertesacker was numb at this moment!

Not to mention that his reaction is not as fast as Eevee, even if he can react, his body flexibility and flexibility are not as exaggerated as Eevee!

Szczesny pounced into the far corner of the goal in a flash of lightning, but after he jumped out of the way, he was horrified to find that Ibrahimovic had stabbed the ball straight into the middle of the goal!

When the football once again crashed into the net behind Szczesny without any suspense, the Polish international slapped the turf in anger!

And in their big forbidden area, Ibu was already hugging tightly with Leon who rushed up and roared happily!

2-0!

It's not a safe enough score for the other teams.

But for Chelsea, that was enough to win the game.

Arsene Wenger sat in the dugout without looking back after seeing Ibrahimovic score his second Chelsea goal, looking much more relaxed.

Arsenal didn't make any more tactical changes until half-time.

Mourinho didn't make any further tactical changes until the start of the second half.

At the start of the second half, Chelsea replaced Frank Lampard with Ramires to further strengthen the midfield's ability to strangle and intercept.

In the 56th minute of the second half, Arsene Wenger also made a substitution, replacing Podolski, who was average today, with young winger Gnabry.

But just three minutes after he made his substitution, Mourinho replaced Eden Hazard, who had played well today, with Callas, who had warmed up.

Cesar Azpilicueta was adducted and partnered by John Terry and Gary Cahill in a central defence.

The new Carlas was in opposition to Gnabry, who had just been sent by Arsene Wenger, and Mourinho's intentions for substitutions were simply not hidden.

At this moment, De Bruyne also retreated to the midfield, and Chelsea, whose formation became 541, can be said to be blocking defenders in their own half.

After another ten minutes, the professor couldn't sit still and replaced his last offensive card on the bench, young young center Sanogo.

As a result, Arsenal have two tall centre-forwards over 1.9m tall on the pitch, at the cost of further weakening their midfield defence.

Tulalang was gone, and the desperate Wenger almost let Mertesacker also play directly on the center forward, wanting to use three battering rams to directly force Chelsea's defensive system.

And at this time, Mourinho did not hesitate to let David Luiz, who had returned from injury, fully warm up and play on the back line!

De Bruyne was finally replaced, and Chelsea, who had four central defenders in the penalty area at the moment, also surprised countless neutral fans!

But, this is also Mourinho!

In order to win the victory safely, he can withstand the pressure of public opinion and defend at the last moment.

Even Ibrahimovic actively ran back to his own half to help defend in the final game time!

This crazy scene has seen countless Gunners fans exhausted.

The moment the referee finally blew the final whistle, the Arsenal players on the pitch and the Gunners fans in front of the TV were even relieved.

This battle of defensive torture against them by Chelsea is finally over!

Well, their hopes of making a last-ditch fight for the Premier League title were dashed by Chelsea's own hands.

But after doing their best, in the face of the reality of the absence of the main center forward, the whole Arsenal team could only swallow the bitter fruit of this helpless defeat.

After the game, the whole Chelsea squad celebrated at home for a while.

In the face of Sky Sports reporters' interview requests, Li Ang also made a confident remark that was destined to stir up the public opinion of the Premier League.

'It's been a tough season, we've had a lot of opponents and you've seen that we're obviously going to be stronger this season than we were to last year's easy title win for Manchester United.

Pep Guardiola's Manchester City are not easy to deal with, and they are still biting us in the back of the ass.

But luckily, after winning this game, we already have the foundation to win the championship early!

Yes, although I don't want to be arrogant about saying that Chelsea will win the title early...

But this is already a fact! ”

Have a meal, and the foodie will come back as the third watch of the day
